Fatigue-driven acceleration of abnormal grain growth in nanocrystalline wires
Abstract
In this study, molecular dynamics simulations were employed to simulate the mechanical response and grain evolution in a Ni nanowire for both static and cyclic loading conditions at both 300 and 500 K for periods of 40 ns. The loading conditions included thermal annealing with no deformation, constant 1% extension (creep loading) and cyclic loading with strain amplitudes of 0.5% and 1% for 200 cycles. Under cyclic loading, the stress–strain response showed permanent deformation and cyclic hardening behavior. At 300 K, modest grain evolution was observed at all conditions within the 40 ns simulations. At 500 K, substantial grain growth is observed in all cases, but is most pronounced under cyclic loading. This may result mechanistically from a net motion of the boundaries associated with boundary ratcheting. Finally, there is a striking qualitative consistency between the present simulation results and the experimental observation of abnormal grain growth in nanocrystalline metals as a precursor to fatigue crack initiation.
